using a second server as backup
I am working in an environment where machines are restarted regularly to update software patches. This is causing down times in our teamcity server. I am wondering if it is possible to have a multiple server setup sharing the common database and settings, so that when one of the server is machine server is down, I turn on the other server automatically and continue to serve the agents with the runs

Hi,
this has been possible for some time thanks to the secondary node setup: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/teamcity/multinode-setup.html. The second server would be read only but would keep tasks running while the first server comes back up.
We are working on full write support for high availability setups but we don't have it ready just yet. We also have some notes on replication here: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/teamcity/how-to.html?viewpage.action%3FpageId=74845225#HowTo...-SetupTeamCityinReplication/ClusteringEnvironment
